How long does it take to do 1 part/section?
Click to expand...
it all depends on the protein u are doing..if you are doing a simple protein then it doesnt take long time....usually a one WU takes 12hrz some times even TRIPLE THAT it also depends on your CPU the faster the better :D
(EVERY MHz COUNTS :) )

currently i hav P41.9GHZ OCED @ 2.10GHZ the WU im working on now is out of 600 and its going pretty fast itll get done in 12hrz...the one b4 was 400 and it took like a day or 2..

and one more thing if u turn off ur computer it continues WHERE YOU LEFT OFF...
so you dont hav to start all over again...

Has anyone tryed running this as a service in win nt/2k/xp?

Anyways here are some direction on how to do it. It seems to work for me. Don't blame me if your comp blows up or something if this does something weird.

First make sure the folding@home Client is properly setup.

Then download the consol version of the client and this. Make sure the consol client is working properly first (run it first).

1. Then make a folder somewhere on your hard drive e.g
 
I suppose you are right, it just seems like so much of a waste to not do so... Oh well, I'll just stick to the three I own, and maybe try and convince my father to do it as well.
 
hey there. i just found all this cool stuff & installed the program on my 2 computers. one runs 24/7, the other is about the same, xcept for an occasional restart. i plan to also install it on my parents' computer later which runs during the day.

the 2 comps are working on a size 400 WU each. B)

Maybe it just hasn't been running long enough to work out the speed, since it hasn't completed a frame yet.

We have had a few warmer days just now Rock.
Is there any chance heat is the problem?

Like in "Sun shining on your case" or,
"Dust and cobwebs on yyour heat-sink" :ph34r:

Most times when you delete a work unit you'll just get the same one handed out over and over.

Yeah it sucks, been there, done that..... :angry:

Close FD2, i found it out. Because of the heat i'm using CoolerXp and guess what?
They don't like each other. Stopped CoolerXp and Wham there it go's.

Spend 3 full days folding and no points were added. :angry: The bad thing is i did no work for the cause! :angry: :angry:

Oh well...

Thanks for the help guys
